Title: Accessing data storage provided using double-stranded nucleic acid molecules
Inventor: MATTHEW JAMES HAYES
IPC: G11C13/00
Filed: 2018-07-26
Abstract: Method of providing data storage using double-stranded nucleic acid molecules (70 figure 5-8) on a thermal control device 52 (and figs 3,4), in which temperature control circuitry 56 independently control the temperature 54 of each of the a plurality of sites (provides different temperature at a target site 54 compared to non-targeted sites). Includes performing a data read from one or more selected double stranded nucleic molecules at the target site, or a data write operation to form one or more new double stranded nucleic acid molecules encoded with data at the target site. The different temperatures at target site(s) provide a greater probability of a read or write operation acting on the target site compared to the other sites. Thus temperature-based addressing may increase physical storage density. The multiple sites may have fluid flowing across the target sites, and the plurality of sites may share a fluid well (without blocking fluid barrier). Each double stranded nucleic acid molecule may include at least a data and an address portion. In a read operation the target-site may receive a higher temperature. The read may further include exposing separated single stranded nucleic acid molecules to an amplification mixture comprising at least one primer for selectively amplifying a single stranded nucleic acid molecule separated from a double-stranded nucleic acid molecule, having address portion matching a target address portion and sequencing the amplified nucleic acid molecule to identify the data portion. Amplification may include PCR or isothermal enzyme based methods. The method may include a computer readable program/ instruction data structure for controlling an apparatus to perform the method.
